The temperature today has been in the high 20s, and it's forecast to stay hot until the end of the week, with overnight lows in the high teens (not that the nights are very long at the moment anyway). This is, on the whole, too hot for me. It's not too bad at the weekends (I spent most of today making a pair of cropped linen trousers, then went to read on the sofa as the living room is north-facing and cool and by mid-afternoon my room was quite hot) but I am not looking forward to working either in my room here, which will be hot again by mid-afternoon, or in my office which is probably cooler but where I would then have to get home in the heat.

At least this evening I'll be going swimming. I wish I was rich enough to have a private lake.

The Met Office was saying 31 today, and I believe it. I went for a walk 10-11 ish, before it peaked, and it was certainly 25/26 by the time I was back. This afternoon it was simply bloody hot.

That said, it's actually worked very well for me - I tolerate heat much better than cold, so it meant I could be post jab in physical comfort - but I'm still glad I'll be able to work in the coldest part of the house tomorrow. Payback for winter!

It looks like it will be similar tonight, too. Not ideal.

Sorry about the SSRIs, that isn't helpful of them.

Yesterday’s heat in Aberdeen was awful; today on Shetland it is, er, 13 degrees and windy.

There’s a house with a private large pond that I pass sometimes, and firmly believe I should own.

Anything above low twenties is Too Hot for me, and this heat makes it hard for the toddler to sleep which is wearing for everyone. I’d love a private pool!

I also find it intolerable and frustrating because it's too hot to do stuff. I'm lucky to have one cool room (very thick, old walls) but I'm sick of the sight of it.

I do not do hot well but I am happier when it is sunny as long as I don't have to go out and stand in it. Having moved my desk to the utility room which has lots of light, I now can't work in it after 4 in the afternoon because it faces north-west and the light reflects off the screen and it is too boiling hot.
